I remember being 6 years old and watching some sitcom (Silver Spoons, maybe?) On this particular episode, Soleil Moon Frye (aka Punky Brewster) guest starred. I told my parents I hoped she got a good night sleep, because she had to wake up early the next morning to be on Punky Brewster. They laughed and tried (unsuccessfully) to make me understand that TV shows are not shown on TV as they are filmed.
A childhood belief about tv
others believed things like this
- a sitcom meant that you sat while you were watching the comedyAnon
- I used to belive that all TV shows were taped in my home city, thats why they were shown here.Anon
- I used to believe toys came alive at night.
Because I love toys, and I hoped be good friend with my toys.Anon - I used to think that Cirque Du Soleil was spanish because when I was younger, I heard it as "Circtus. Olay!"— me
- I used to believe that my toys would wake up when I went to sleep, and would play by themselves.Anon
- When a grown-up is shown as a child, it was actually them, and the film took 20+ years to produceAnon
